    DUC file extension

    You don't open it, you just download the file and copy it to the root directory of the thumb drive (not in a sub-directory / folder. Then you plug the thumb drive into the Skyview and load the file into all screens separately

    Backup battery isn't working

    In case you get that message you have 30 seconds to make the decision to either leave the unit powered from the backup battery, shut down immediately or if you don't do anything the unit will after the 30 seconds turn off automatically, so if you don't pay attention the unit might have powered...

    SV-OAT-340 wiring question

    Building an airplane is a continuous learning process, there are so may things I don't know. Glad to be of any help, or have my answers refuted

    SV-OAT-340 wiring question

    Should be no problem, signals on these wires are only slowly changing. Only make sure that the the Sun can't change the temperature reading (should be OK as I assume the inspection plate is on the bottom of the wing), also make sure that it is far enough out from the engine exhaust stream as...

    Sure you can, there is no difference for these signals, but it won't harm either

    Skyview network connection fault

    That's what it seems to suggest, it is most likely that the failure to communicate via the redundant interface is somewhere located in the common path. So either the connector on the back of the display or the shared wiring seems the most likely, but it could also be a consistent error in the...

    Skyview network connection fault

    The Dynon network is a redundant network providing a double /separate connection for the interfaces. When you get this message it means that the wiring is not providing a correct interface for the redundant interface on pins 4 & 8. The primary connection is working, as you say the servo's are...

    Can someone tell me how to convert this raw tach time number?

    True, Tach time normally references an engine running time that is normalized to the nominal RPM of the engine, so that when the engine is only run at 60% of its nominal rpm that the tach time only counts 60% of the actual time spend running at that rate. THis matches the idea that tch time is...

    General purpose input Pin (for example Pin 22 ) with internal Pull UpResistance ?

    In a separate note 'SkyView Making your own sensor definition.pdf', at some point available on: 'http://wiki.dynonavionics.com/Making_your_own_sensor_definitions', it is stated that all general purpose inputs (type A) support configurable internal pull-up resistors of 10k, 1k or 200 ohm. For the...

    General purpose input Pin (for example Pin 22 ) with internal Pull UpResistance ?

    On page 7-67 of the installation manual (version AG) Dynon states that any of the pins 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 20, 21, 22, 23 and 31can be used as an input for the trim/flap position sensors, with the sensor (potensiometer) connected to +5V (aux and Gnd and the swiper of the potentiometer to...

    Fuel sender not reading

    I think the next step in troubleshooting is verifying that the sensor is working,. Making sure that the sensor shows a different voltage when the level in the tank changes. Either by adding or removing fuel from the tank. If the measured voltage stays the same for two clealy different fuel...

    DUAL Classic display EMS not showing when one display is off

    OK, I went to my hanger to check. I had been running a two screen classic Dynon system with Ethernet cable and I had already established that it worked with either one or two screens powered. I disconnected the ethernet cable and powered up one screen all worked worked and I would see the EGT...

    DUAL Classic display EMS not showing when one display is off

    It seems strange that the Ethernet cable woudl be needed to transfer EMS information between the two units, I thought it was needed to trasnfer configuration data between the two units. I can test this in my system that has two Dynon Classis units probably later today. I will remove the cable...

    Switching Com from IFD540 to Dynon Com Panel/ GPS Map Question

    Why would you be concerned about the battery in the 540 with regard to the default location display. Wouldn't the HDX get it location information from the Dynon 251 or 2020 GPS receiver?

    Audio alerts problem

    Confused about the reply to my suggestion. In Revision AG of thee Installation manual on page 4-34 Dynon states: "If there is more than one display on a SkyView network, you MUST connect all displays’ audio outputs to the same audio panel input to ensure that audio is always heard. Electrically...

    Audio alerts problem

    The wiring of a dual Skyview system to the audio system should connect the audio outputs of both Skyview systems together and then to the audio panel. This ensures that when one of the Skyview units fails that the other unit can still send an audio message to the audio panel

    2nd Display Reboots at Startup

    question: do you have a Skyview backup battery installed for both displays separately?

    SkyView stays on after shutdown

    Could it be that if Dynon considers the aircraft is in flight then it will keep the display and reports the "Aircraft lost power" and when the aircraft is considered in rest and on the ground that Dynon presents the countdown and the option to power off now? So maybe the issue with with the...

    Static MP Reading

    Hello Rob, The Kavlico sensors are the ones to be used for Fuel and Oil pressure, not for the MP sensor. There is a completely different sensor to be used for the manifold pressure as this is a much lower pressure range

    Skyview / Garmin GTN-650 sharing GPS-2020 Antenna

    NO, The GPS-2020 is much more than just an antenna, it is the complete GPS receiver and the interface is just a power and serial rs-232 data interface, The GTN 650 has just an antenna in their puck.
